Sad news - former IBF Suoer-Bantamweight world champion Lehlo Ledwaba has passed away.
So sad to hear this, he was a fearsome champion in the ring and a gentleman outside it

Re: Lehlo Ledwaba
RIP, shame to hear that, he was the fella an unknown Pacquiao came over to States to beat eh?
Re: Lehlo Ledwaba
He defended 5 times, there was talk of Hamed etc. Then Paquiao came along and scored an ‘upset’. Given what he achieved after it wasn’t a bad result. I Boxed Lehlo when he was 16-1-1, he was S.African champion. He was the best, hardest hitting man I ever faced. Beat me comfortably.
The only good thing for me was that I shared the ring with a S. African legend of boxing.

Looking at Lehlo's record, and working out who you are..... You reckon he got harder than Naz?Bomberh71 wrote: ↑02 Jul 2021, 17:34 He defended 5 times, there was talk of Hamed etc. Then Paquiao came along and scored an ‘upset’.
